Got Live Tuned today!

Well, Jody worked his magic today and truck is running really good. EGTS are very manageable, power is great, and lookin like my Fuel mileage might come up some(that will be a plus)!!!! He was doing one more truck when i left, i had to elave early to come to work. But his tunes are really nice. my 140 extreme is nutz!!!!! will Dyno that tune Tomorrow morning.

Im so glad i did this live tuning, i can definitely notice a differenc ein the truck. I was pulling one of the passes in North IDaho today while Jody was in the truck at 80mph in my 80 and 120 tune and couldnt get above 1100*. he has this thing dialed in.

The only concern he had were my oil temps. I need to get rid of that junk 203* thermostat. once i do, my oil temps will be where they need to be.

dang that seems high for a truck without big oil unloaded...

Sounds cool though. I wish I could have made it over there. Just been too busy getting ready to move into a new house... LOL
